// We use .Round(0) to strip the monotonic clock reading from the time.Time
// returned by time.Now(). That will make the before/after check in the ticker
// for-loop compare wall-clock times instead of monotonic time.
// Comparing wall clock time is necessary because monotonic time does not progress
// while the system is suspended.
//
// Background
//
// A time.Time carries a wallclock timestamp and optionally a monotonic clock timestamp.
// time.Now() returns a time.Time that carries both.
// time.Time.Add() applies the same delta to both timestamps in the time.Time.
// x.Sub(y) will return the *monotonic* delta if both x and y carry a monotonic timestamp.
// time.Until(x) == x.Sub(now) where `now` will have a monotonic timestamp.
// So, time.Until(x) with an `x` that has monotonic timestamp will return monotonic delta.
//
// Why Do We Care?
//
// On systems that suspend/resume, wall clock time progresses during suspend but
// monotonic time does not.
//
// So, suppose the following sequence of events:
// x <== time.Now()
// System suspends for 1 hour
// delta <== time.Now().Sub(x)
// `delta` will be near 0 because time.Until() subtracts the monotonic
// timestamps, and monotonic time didn't progress during suspend.
//
// Now strip the timestamp using .Round(0)
// x <== time.Now().Round(0)
// System suspends for 1 hour
// delta <== time.Now().Sub(x)
// `delta` will be 1 hour because time.Sub() subtracted wallclock timestamps
// because x didn't have a monotonic timestamp because we stripped it using .Round(0).
//
//
